Beautiful setting. . Kayaks, fire pit & composting toilet are nice amenities. Hosts were clear w expectations and clarified when they’d be available is we needed any.My group read all info beforehand so we expected a steep ( 4wd type) driveway to parking. We knew a cart was provided to cart gear on what was described as a rustic gently sloped 400 foot trail to the campsite. However , the slope has steeper sections w uneven footing and rocks +2 narrow hairpin turns - sketchy even w a light load. Its necessary to haul in a propane tank & all H20-just the weight of those items on the less gentle parts of the slope were making the cart tippy /difficult to control. I’m an experienced backpacker/ accustomed to rough trails / long distance hucking so hauling my tent, bag , pad ,clothing etc in my pack to camp was no problem at all. Had we all been backpackers and used the site like a backcountry site, w backpack stoves, dehydrated food etc it would’ve been fine but this site is problematic/labor intensive to reach w car camp gear. Site is also loud- constant sound of trucks on nearby Hwy - plus, residences are nearby, and sadly a nearby dog loudly barked - no exaggeration - every few seconds all afternoon and all night long- not the hosts fault, but informing campers of this possibility is important. Our group loves dogs , but this poor dog yelped and barked loudly every 10 to 15 seconds for 12 hours straight, none of us slept much because of it.

Incredible spot with extras

Such an incredible spot. The site is beautiful, private, quiet, and we appreciated the thoughtful extras (picnic table, kayaks, chairs, fire pit). The site was a bit hard to find as there is no number sign, just three orange ribbons. I would absolutely love to stay here again!

We had such a lovely time at this beautiful spot! It was very peaceful and such a beautiful view. The driveway definitely is steep so 4W drive was very helpful. It can be a bit of a steep hike from the parking spot to the campsite so be sure to pack in a way where you don’t have to take too many trips! The propane fire pit, picnic table, and composting toilet were all great additions. There is some road noise but for the most part it was very quiet, we could see and hear lots of birds and wild life. Great spot!

We had an amazing time at this campsite. I love to camp in places that are private and this was exactly that. It even has its own beach. My kids loved playing in the water and digging up rocks and shells. The kayaks provided are super easy to launch and are right by the stairs to the water. Most of the afternoon the tide was out, so if you plan to kayak make sure you check the tide first, which the listing does mention. We kayaked at sunset and in the morning. The water and tent sites are down the hill, there was a wagon provided though that made packing stuff in and out much easier. Also to note that the driveway down to the lot is a bit steep so make sure you bring a 4wd vehicle like the listing says. Our truck had no problems up or down. Another perk to this lot is location. It’s basically right outside of town. It was a great time, we will definitely be back.

I have had many positive Hipcamp experiences. We love to take our small camper van and experience new places and the fact that it was on the water and our dog could be off leash made this location more appealing. The photos are of a very small portion of the property. The driveway is very steep (4x4 is recommended) and currently from the road it ends in a flattened area with a large slash pile. If you are not tent camping your view is of the slash pile. The road is not wide enough to park safely above the gravel driveway. If you are tent camping you will need to take all of your things down a trail to the waters edge (including your own propane tank for the small propane fire pit). The cleared tent areas are rough with rocks and roots.

Relaxing with dogs

Great place just out of town to escape. Watching the tide come in was relaxing, hanging by the campfire enjoying dinner and the sunset! Great place for well behaved off leash dogs.
